Eye twitching is normal if you have epilepsy or seizures disorder. I have the same problem i also have seizure disoder i was dianosed when i was 25 i am 32 years old now for 8 years i been seizing and my eye has been seizing as well . It happends to many people. i was told by my dr is to stay away from caffine if you have to drink a cola or coffee try the caffine free drinks and coffees or lay off the sugar based drinks in your coffee and colas. the caffine in the colas and coffee and any other kind of drinks that are consumed causes the body to over activate the muscles and it situlates it at a higher in crease. I was told a basic diet works nothing with high starches and carbs that also stresses the body out as well.
also lay off chocolate and coco if nessary it also causes the body to over situlate its self . pleanty of sleep works and try a stress free day . The more stress a epilepic and seizure disorder person faces the more stress the body is impacted and the muscles twitch on their own regardless of taking medication or not. The eye twitches for one reason it is over stimulated and loses mucle control. I was told by my dr and my eye dr that the muscles in the eye lose strength as a person gets older. if you have vison problems wear your glasses more or contacts . If you are still worried about the eye twitching call your dr for a vision screening and take your medication.
